27
Q

Establishing polarity

A

occurs when blastocystic cavity pushes the inner cell mass to one side

28
Q

Between which days does the blastocyst hatch

29
Q

Hatching is facillitated by what

A

proteolytic enzymes from the trophoblast which degenerate the Zona Pellucida

30
Q

Dizygotic twins

A

two independently fertilized eggs

31
Q

Monozygotic twins

A

one fertilized egg splits into two

32
Q

Events of early blastocyst implantation occur between which days?

33
Q

Implantation into uterine wall: Events of day 6

A

blastocyst contacts uterine mucosa; blastocyst is said to be captured

34
Q

Implantation into uterine wall: Events of day 7

A

formation of syncytiotrophoblast and cytotrophoblast

35
Q

Implantation into the uterine wall: Events of day 8

A

errosion of maternal blood vessels and production of hCG by syncytiotrophoblast

36
Q

Implantation into the uterine wall: Events of day 9

A

vacuoloes that appear in syncytium will fuse to form lacunae; lacunar stage of trophoblast development

37
Q

Implantation Events of day 10

A

Blastocyst embeds deeper into uterine tissue; formation of closing plug in endometrial surface defect

38
Q

Implantation into uterine wall Days 10 and 11

A

Adjacent lacunae fuse, forming lacunar networks filled with embryotroph

39
Q

Embryotroph

A

Blood+glandular cell debris

40
Q

Implantation into the uterine wall Days 11 and 12

A

Maternal blood from eroded endometrial BVs flows through lacunar networks; initiation of uroplacental circulation

41
Q

Implantation into the uterine wall Days 12 and 13

A

Defect in endometrial endothelium is repaired

42
Q

Day 21 (gestational age)

A

first contact with uterine wall occurs

43
Q

Day 26 (gestational age)

A

fully implanted in uterine wall

44
Q

Bilaminar Disc Formation Day 8

A

Embryoblast (inner cell mass) differentiates into Hypoblast Layer and Epiblast Layer

45
Q

Hypoblast Layer

A

small cuboidal cells adjacent to the exocoelemic cavity

46
Q

Epiblast Layer

A

tall columnar cells adjacent to the amniotic cavity

47
Q

Exocoelemic cavity is aka what

A

Primary umbillical vessicle

48
Q

Hypoblast+Exocoelomic membrane together line what?

A

Exocoelemic cavity

49
Q

Epiblast+Amnion together line what?

A

amniotic cavity

50
Q

Bilaminar Disc Formation Day 9

A

extraembryonic meosderm appears

51
Q

Extraembryonic mesoderm does what?

A

surrounds the exocoelemic cavity/primary umbillical vessicle

52
Q

Bilaminar Disc Formation Day 12

A

Cavities form within the extraembryonic mesoderm called the extraembryonic spaces

53
Q

Bilaminar Disc Formation Day 13 (2 things)

A

Exrraembryonic coelomic spaces fuse creating the extraembryonic coelom (chorionic cavity) Primary umbillical vessicle begins to be pinched off creating the secondary umbillicle vessicle

54
Q

Extraembryonic somatic mesoderm

A

adjacent to cytotrophoblast + covers amnion

55
Q

Extraembryonic splanchnic mesoderm

A

covers secondary umbillicle vesicle

56
Q

Extraembryonic coelom/chorionic cavity surrounds what?

A

the amnion and the exocoelomic cavity/umbillicle vessicle EXCEPT at the connecting stalk

57
Q

Bilaminar disc= (2 things)

A

epiblast+hypoblast

58
Q

Bilaminar disc formation Day 14 (2 things)

A

Larger part of primary vessicle may persist as as an exocoelomic cyst Hypoblast at the cranial end become tall columnar cells forminng the prechordal plate (site of future mouth)
